Hi Ahitabh,

Why to use an FM for that?

Just assign the float value to a normal Char type variable of length = output length of the float variable.

v_char = v_float.

f = '41'.

CALL FUNCTION 'FLTP_CHAR_CONVERSION'

EXPORTING

DECIM = 2

EXPON = 0

Hi Ajitabh,

This works for me.

REPORT ZRT_TEST.

data: f type f value '1.000000000E+05'.

data: i type i.

write:/ f.

i = f.

write:/ i.

Hi ajitah pradhan,

You can directly convert a float to charecter by just assigning them in your report.

For eg.

program:

data: f type f.

data: c(24).

f = 20.

write : f.

c = f.

write: / c.

output:

2,0000000000000000E+01

2.0000000000000000E+01

The charecter should be of 24 in length.

Else the no. of zero reduces.

hope this helps you.

Regards,

Vivek.
